    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    IMO Most politicians know they have whity’s vote, right down party lines, but it’s the minorities they pander to because they need their swing votes.

    The economy.

    Something that happened to me in Melbourne that I really don't want to talk about...

    Worrying about life...

    Worrying that all the lies I've told in my life will come back to haunt me like they do in movies and TV and books and stuff...

    The fact that I am so insignificant when it comes to affecting anything...

    What CA said...

    Wondering why I'm such a failure at life, and how people still seem to think I'm awesome (they must be lying...)...

    And on that happy note...

    Good Night!

    Wondering what the hell I am going to do with my life when I graduate in two years time, given that the economy will have fallen to bits leaving no jobs in the "real" world, while at the same the research councils are cutting back on the already hard to get postdoctoral positions.

    Back to stacking shelves in the supermarket I suppose. At least I can insist that they use the title "Dr." on my namebadge.

    But..striking.......french.........of course not. And anyway, France has a wonderful position being one of the only complete national self-sufficient economies that was pretty good a move. But we just got belgium and iceland but what to to with them.

    Well he sent hackers to break the link to the local TV news, at least. i'll post the link once it becomes valid.

    And no, the cops usually hesitate before beating men in uniforms, and forest workers are not really pussicats.... Moreover the first chicken who came was... my brother-in-law!

    But figure it, the demonstration was successful: today's wood sales was postponed and our manager's panicked stares was worth losing two days of wages!

    I hope the next one will be in Paris, in defense of the Forest!!
